The Fatherhood H.E.A.R.T. of an Archangel

When dads are encouraging archangels, they are message-driven, purpose-driven, reverent to GOD and mindful of the angels stewarded to them. They even call themselves fellow servants with others. Relationship by relationship and action by action a dad writes either confirmation of GOD’s message of love, acceptance and peace or amends it by the flesh, sin, bad habits or even abuse. One of the hats that a father should wear involves recognizing the message – the big picture and where their child may fit in. This requires faith, study, hope and love. An archangel is an authoritative messenger responsible for messengers.

 Authority requires wisdom and its foundation should be love. It is not just recognizing the message. It is realizing that our children are messages in and of themselves. They are special-delivered, packaged bundles of joy with an encrypted message. The message is based on what is in them –their purpose, WHO placed it there, WHO sealed them, WHO will deliver them and to whom they are sent to bless, encourage or warn. It take the right mindset and heart-set. Wouldn’t it be powerful if dads encouraged their children with the heart of an archangel?

What is the H.E.A.R.T. of an archangel?

Honor of an Archangel: Dads help their child to honor their gifting and calling by honoring it unconditionally. To honor a father as archangel is to recognize the special message from GOD that he is – submitted and committed to GOD; especially as he recognizes the special message that his child is. It is also doing things beyond their presence and awareness to allow for victory. Dads help clear the path of purpose well ahead of their child, so their child can win

Encouragement of an Angel: “Be not afraid” or “Be of good courage”… as dads we must encourage our children to be positive, faithful, hopeful and loving messengers. It is life altering to have a positive father who sees the best in you and reminds you of what makes you valuable.

Accountability of an Archangel: TO GOD, HIS message and the unique message in himself and those in his charge Accountability Question: What message is your child…what message do you hope that your child give to the world? What are we doing to help them deliver that message?

A major part of dads accountability is “stealth availability” – doing things behind the scenes for their benefit.

Reconciliation of an Angel: Peace on Earth and Good will towards men. Dads model forgiveness and hope. Dads are to supply and point toward peace consistently. Though intimidating externally, a father can be the encourager of his child not by ignoring difficult circumstances but by helping them believe that their destiny is greater than their difficulty. Dads who themselves are reconciled that all thing ultimately work together for good, normalize this spirit for their child. What is your message of forgiveness and hope?

Training of an Archangel: Dads are make the message of GOD's love and power second nature by clear communication, suggestion, action, direction. Dad let your child know that he/she is a special message from GOD and that many others will learn about GOD by seeing what is special about them…ultimately those angels you are raising will have angels to raise - Teach them the big picture and to nurture and protect the message so that it is clearly delivered. Good teachers have good lesson plans
